Meet Our Sponsored Students
Over the past several years, many of our readers have been fascinated and touched by our occasional stories featuring just a few of the many thousands of Afghan girls and boys attending our schools - and you've wanted to see more.
With that thought in mind, HTAC is proud to have you meet and connect with more of these wonderful students - the Afghanistan children who are benefiting from your support.
In Afghanistan, the ability for children to successfully complete their basic education, especially for girls, is challenging. There are significant pressures on families to have their sons begin working or for their daughters to enter into early marriage, both of which bring the family additional money. Despite these challenges, most parents want to see their sons and daughters attend school and eventually become productive citizens. Afghan children themselves have an incredible desire to learn and obtain an education. They are bright, energetic and many have career goals. How many of them will have the opportunity to pursue those goals will largely depend on their ability to stay in school.
That's where you, our donors, come in. Your contributions make it possible for us to bring quality education to thousands of children, inspiring them to want to learn more and, in turn, motivating their parents to do all they can to support them during these critical years.
That's why we thought you would like to see some of the students you are helping to make education and a future - not just a dream - but a reality.
